Sinners: Blood, Blues, and Bad Deals (1930s Vampire Vibe Check)
In this vein-popping episode of Entertain This!, we sink our teeth into Ryan Coogler’s Sinners—the vampire flick that’s equal parts Get Out social satire and From Dusk Till Dawn bar brawl, set against a sultry 1930s Mississippi Delta backdrop. Michael B. Jordan doubles down as twin brothers fleeing Chicago’s underworld, only to unearth a nest of bloodsuckers who make eternal life look like a bad sharecropper deal. Hailee Steinfeld croons the blues while dodging daylight, and the whole affair pulses with Coogler’s signature style. It presents the eternal question—would you trade your soul for immortality if it came with a side of chitlins?
We dissect the film’s knockout set pieces (that shotgun-wielding sunrise showdown? Chef’s kiss), debate whether vampires are the ultimate metaphor for generational trauma or just excuses for killer costumes.
Spoiler alert: necks get nicked, laughs get drawn, and we leave no plot hole unprodded.
Tune in if you’re ready to laugh ’til you bleed—because in the world of Sinners, we give you all you need
